{title:Description}

{pstd} 
Fit by conditional maximum likelihood the model for binary logitudinal data proposed by Bartolucci & Nigro (2010).

{pstd} 
For a vector y_i of T observations (y_{i,1},...,y_{i,T}) for unit i, the model is based on the assumption:

{pstd} 
p(y_i) {proportional to} exp[(y_{i,2}x_{i,2} + ... + y_{i,T}x_{i,T})'beta1 + y_{i,T}(phi+x_{i,T}'beta2)
+(y_{i,1}y_{i,2} + ... + y_{i,T-1}y_{i,T})gamma]

{pstd} 
where x_{i,t} is a column vector of covariates and the first observation is taken as initial condition.
The function can be also used with unbalanced panel data.

{pstd} 
id (compulsory) is the list of the reference unit of each observation{p_end}

{pstd}
phi is indicated by diff-int in the output 

{pstd}
beta is indicated by diff-cov1... in the output
